This is part of an ongoing series where I offer my opinion on guys who have been mentioned as possible replacements for Matt Millen to guide the most inept franchise in professional sports: the Detroit Lions.
Jason Whitlock made the case for Mayhew in this article. Here is what he had to say:
Last week I […]
Part two in a semi-regular look at guys who could potentially replace Matt Millen.
Tom Heckert’s only been a general manager in Philadelphia for 2.5 years and final personnel decisions rest with head coach Andy Reid, not Heckert. So he doesn’t have a lot of high-end experience leading a franchise, although he’s obviously much more […]
With lots of commentary on guys the Lions should go after to fill their GM spot, I figured I’d throw my opinion out there. Because I totally know Bill Ford Jr. checks Gorilla Crouch out to see what I’m thinking.
You cannot argue with Floyd Reese’s track record. He took a franchise that moved […]

The single most important decision the Detroit Lions will make will be whether they solicit the NFL for guidance in choosing their new general manager. There is no one in the organization who can really claim to have a good handle on what it takes to turn […]
Bill Ford Jr said he didn’t have the decision-making power to remove Matt Millen as the Detroit Lions’ general manager. But there can be no question his public disapproval of the disgraced football executive was the action that set the wheels in motion that led to Matt Millen being fired last night.
I’m not one […]

…if I was the offensive coordinator, I’d be in four-wides. It means nothing,’’ said [wide receiver Roy] Williams, referring to a wide-open four-receiver formation…
After a couple of questions about unrelated subjects, Williams was asked if there was any way the Lions will actually use those four-receiver formations.
“That’s not our […]
Do you believe in now? Detroit sports fans were given a healthy cut of mouth-watering sirloin today in the form of a quote from Bill Ford Jr. about Matt Millen’s lack of support within the Ford family.
“I think the fans deserve better and if it were in my authority, which it’s not, I’d make […]
The Detroit Lions faced their former offensive coordinator this afternoon when they played the San Francisco 49′ers. And Mike Martz gave the Lions a healthy dose of what they were presumed to base their entire raison d’etre upon on the way to a 31-13 San Fran victory: running the football. Let’s take a […]
If you’ve followed the Detroit Lions for any length of time you realize that William Clay Ford has been one of the worst owners in professional sports. His franchise has won one playoff game during the 46 years he’s owned the team. That level of suckitude sets the bar for all other franchises […]

“Do you believe in now?”
That’s the Detroit Lions’ tagline to try and sell tickets to their games. They’d better hope people who are considering supporting their team base their decisions on nifty marketing phrases rather than the actual product on the field as the Lions were embarrassed by the […]
